The TV dos Trabalhadores (Workers' TV, also known as TVT) is a Brazilian television broadcaster founded in 2010 with headquarters and studios in the city of São Bernardo do Campo and a concession in the city of Mogi das Cruzes, both in the metropolitan region of São Paulo. It belongs to Fundação Sociedade Comunicação, Cultura e Trabalho, founded by Sindicato dos Metalúrgicos do ABC  [ pt ] (ABC Metalworkers' Union) and Sindicato dos Bancários e Financiários de São Paulo, Osasco and Região that also maintains Rádio Brasil Atual  [ pt ]. [1]

History

In 1986, a production company linked to the Sindicato dos Metalúrgicos do ABC was created with the objective of recording and documenting in video the history and activities of the union. [2]

Years later in 1993, in the face of the employee strike and financial crisis at Rede Manchete, the Central Única dos Trabalhadores presented a proposal to transform the broadcaster into a foundation managed by the union as a form of compensation for late payments. This proposal had the support of the then-governor of Rio de Janeiro, Leonel Brizola, who took the proposal to president Itamar Franco, who rejected it. [3]

After 15 more years, finally in October 2009, the Ministry of Communications granted a concession to TVT, thus becoming the first television broadcaster granted to a union entity in Brazil. It went on air on August 23, 2010, with the presence of then-president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva at its inauguration ceremony. [2] [4] In its first months, it had technical and operational support from NGT to broadcast its signal in São Paulo. [1]

In April 2014, the Ministry of Communications authorized TVT to transmit its programming in a digital signal to Greater São Paulo. [5]

In September 2017, the broadcaster hired sports commentator José Trajano [6] and in January 2018, hired sports journalist Juca Kfouri to present programs related to sports and politics at the station. [7]

In April 2018, the station reached its largest audience by broadcasting live coverage of the prison sentence of former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva  [ pt ], with footage shot by TVT rebroadcast by other stations such as Globo and Band. The TVT coordinator said at the time that he would sue the broadcasters for copyright infringement. [8]
